The Milley Awards
The citizens of Mill Valley, California, annually recognize those among us who, through their accomplishments in the arts, have brought honor to our community. They have done this through their talents and actions in the state, national or international arenas.
The Milley Awards celebrate those living artists and artist-teachers who were born in Mill Valley, California, or went to school here, or work here, or have made their home here, and who have enriched our lives.
Through the Mill Valley Creative Achievement Awards, also known as the Milley Awards, we applaud their achievements in the arts professions and their contributions to the creative life of the Mill Valley community.
The Milley Awards are sponsored by the Mill Valley Arts Commission and produced by the Milley Awards Executive Committee, a volunteer community group. Nominations are open throughout the year and judges change annually.
